Are Scholarships or Teaching Assistant (TA) positions available?
Department Scholarships are awarded to students in their second and third years. Students apply for them Spring quarter. Opportunities for department scholarships are small in amount and number and so it is recommended to rely on scholarships and sources of funding outside the Department. The Department offers several Teaching Assistant and Research Assistant positions. The students for these positions apply Spring quarter and are selected by the Faculty. Students are e-mailed throughout the year with scholarship opportunities from other organizations. This information is also posted to the Scholarships and Jobs board outside the Department office. The Grants & Funding Information Services Center (GFIS) is located in Room G86A, Allen Library, South Wing, on the UW Campus. Their email is gfis@u.washington.edu. Telephone: 206-616-3084. They can help with Internet Searches for grant and scholarship money. They offer workshops for faculty, staff and students to do their own web searches. S
